I am a heathen though and add milk. Goes really well with the plum jam I made today on lovely home made scones.

Prefer the beer to the tea but I'm a typical man! Just raised my mug of tea in your general Scottish direction :) Miels Lynn,

I totally agree with you on it's magical powers though!!

The glossy interior reveals urns full of exotic smells... some enticing, some an acquired taste. I nearly always buy some, a treasured little package reserved for moments of quiet reflection. Look around the kitchen and you'll find plenty of tea bags too and a smattering of herbal and green .... my relatives and friends all have their preferences. Whereas coffee, there's normally only one and it's generally organic and smooth but generally accepted by all non tea drinkers (how can anyone dislike tea?). Why is it that our continental neighbours struggle to understand the concept of boiling water, tea bag and a splash of milk? Years have passed in between my jaunts abroad but one element remains the same..... should I pack some teabags and if I do, will they have any milk other than uht and do the customs officials recognise a quality article and confiscate it? You cannot separate the British from their pot of tea, it's cruel! Cid Miles,

I'm an advocate of extra strong PG Tips myself - splash of fully skimmed milk for me. Fat free so you don't taste the milk as it were just the tea ! If I could only ever drink one thing again it would be the above Rod Cracking post - great read!
